What is the largest passenger ship in the world. Travel on the largest liner in the world! TI class supertankers

Since ancient times, people have traveled the seas, gradually improving their ships. Modern shipbuilding is very developed, and the range of ships has become unusually diverse. But the TOP of the most always attracts special attention big ships in the world that will be discussed below.

1. Seawise Giant (Knock Nevis)

Deadweight - 564,700 tons.
. Length - 458.5 m.
. Year of construction - 1979.
. Last country of registration: Sierra Leone. Dismantled for scrap.

The largest ship in the world until 2010 was a supertanker " Knock Nevis", built in 1975 in the Japanese city of Yokosuka. Before changing several names, it had a simple number 1016. But its cyclopean dimensions actually ruined it - the tanker could not pass through either the Panama or Suez Canal, even in the English Channel it would have run aground, so it could move from ocean to ocean I could only do it in a roundabout way.
During the Iran-Iraq War of 1988, it was hit by an Iraqi missile and seriously damaged. As a result, the supertanker sank in Persian Gulf not far from the coast. After the end of the conflict, it was raised from the bottom and towed to Singapore, where they were able to restore it in 1991, giving it a new “optimistic” name, “The Happy Giant.” But no one needed it as a tanker, so it began to serve as a floating oil storage facility. Finally, in 2009, the “lucky one” was sent on its final journey to the Indian shores, where the following year it was cut into scrap metal.

A lot of people would love to ride along cable car to experience all the extraordinary sensations caused by such a method of moving...

2. Pierre Guillaumat

Deadweight - 555,000 tons.
. Length - 414.2 m.
. Year of construction - 1977.
. Last country of registration: France. Cut into scrap metal.

In the family of twin ships of the Batillus series, this supertanker is the largest in terms of deadweight. It was built at French shipyards, only worked for 5 years, after which it was mercilessly sent in 1983 to South Korea, where it was turned into scrap metal. The rest of his brothers from the same series shared his fate. The reasons for such an inglorious death in all cases were the same problems with the impossibility of passing through Suez and Panama Canal s.

3. Esso Atlantic

Deadweight - 516,900 tons.
. Length - 406.5 m.
. Year of construction - 1977.
. Last country of registration: Liberia. Cut into scrap metal.

At one time, this oil supertanker was also a deadweight champion. It was built in Japan, and made its first commercial route from Liberia, Africa, where the owner company Esso Tankers registered it under the Liberian flag. Most often, the tanker transported oil from the Middle East to Europe. But in 2002, the end came for him too - in Pakistan he was cut into scrap metal. He had practically a sister ship, the Esso Pacific, but, despite the “Pacific” name, it was smaller than its “Atlantic brother.”

4. Emma Maersk

Deadweight - 156,900 tons.
. Length - 397 m.
. Year of construction - 2006.
. Last country of registration: Denmark. Still in use.

This is the first vessel of eight identical E-class container ships built by the Danish holding Moller-Maersk Group. At the time of her maiden voyage in 2006, she was the world's largest floating vessel. Emma Maersk transports a variety of cargo between Asia and America, passing through the Suez Canal and the Strait of Gibraltar.
This ship does not have a very successful history - when its construction was already being completed, a fire broke out on the upper deck, which seriously damaged the brand new ship. Repairs were needed, which were done quickly. In 2013, a new misfortune occurred - right in the middle of the Suez Canal, one of the power plants of the dry cargo ship broke down, as a result of which it lost control. Fortunately, both the ship and the canal remained intact.
Europeans do not favor the giant for its use of sulfur-rich fuel. Like many giant ships, Emma does not fit into the Panama Canal, so Pacific Ocean closed for her (it’s not possible to sail there around Cape Horn!).

5.TI Class

Deadweight - 441,600 tons.
. Length - 380 m.
. Year of construction - 2003.
. Last country of registration: Belgium. Still in use.

This double-hulled vessel had the largest deadweight and gross tonnage of its time. A total of four completely identical vessels were built: two “TI Africa” and “TI Oceania” under the flag of the Marshall Islands, “TI Europe” under the Belgian flag and “TI Asia”. But in 2010, floating terminal platforms were made from “Asia” and “Africa” for storing and loading petroleum products, and since then they have been laid up near one of the Qatari offshore oil fields.

6. Vale Sohar

Deadweight - 400 300 tons.
. Length - 362 m.
. Year of construction - 2012.
. Last country of registration: Marshall Islands. Still in use.

7.Allure of the Seas

Deadweight - 19,750 tons.
. Length - 362 m.
. Year of construction - 2008.
. Last country of registration: Bahamas. Still in use.

The types of entertainment offered on board are countless; this floating city also has a golf course and ice rink, a lot of bars and shops, there is even a park with exotic plants.

8.Queen Mary II

Deadweight - 19,200 tons.
. Length - 345 m.
. Year of construction - 2002.

9.Mozah

Deadweight - 128,900 tons.
. Length - 345 m.
. Year of construction - 2007.
. Last country of registration: Qatar. Still in use.

This vessel opens a new family of tankers in the Q-Max series, which specialize in transporting liquefied natural gas produced from fields off the coast of Qatar. It was designed and built in South Korea. A total of 14 tankers from this series are currently in operation.

10. USS Enterprise (CVN-65)

Length - 342 m.
. Year of construction - 1960.
. Last country of registration: USA. The aircraft carrier has been decommissioned.

It is America's largest nuclear-powered attack aircraft carrier and the first to be nuclear-powered. It began operating in 1961. A series of six similar hulks was planned, but only the Enterprise was built. Its cost amounted to an incredible 451 million dollars, so even the bottomless US budget could not afford such expenses. In terms of length, it is the largest warship in the world. Having refueled once with nuclear fuel, the aircraft carrier acquired autonomy for 13 years of active service and could travel a million nautical miles during this time. In February 2017, the Enterprise was sent into honorable retirement - this was the first send-off for a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier for the American Navy.

Produces 20 percent less hydrocarbon emissions into the air. This is achieved through the use of new technologies.

Construction lasted 2.5 years. More than 1.5 billion US dollars were spent. The area is larger than the size of two football fields. The total power of six diesel units is 132 thousand horsepower, thanks to the engine traction it develops speeds of over 22 knots. This is the third giant of the “Largest Cruise Ship in the World” class for 2016.

To ensure that passengers have a long-lasting vacation, there are plenty of entertainment options on board the ship, and some travelers sometimes don’t have time to try everything during their stay. Here you can find leisure activities for every taste. Thrill-seekers will love the dizzying descents from water slides, which are located at a height of 10 deck floors. Guests have at their disposal: swimming pools, casinos, exciting parties, sports grounds, and jazz clubs.

During the summer period, the liner made seven-day trips around Mediterranean Sea, and will cross the Atlantic Ocean in the fall.

How much does the pleasure of riding on such a miracle of water engineering cost? Really inexpensive. Quite for an acceptable amount, which will be equal to a 1-day holiday in Thailand, but if you do not order a luxury apartment, you will stay in standard rooms. Nowadays, trips around the world by sea are not only reserved for the elite. Such entertainment is accessible to the middle class.
